Controllers with the Smart Wireless THUM

™

Adapter and a HART Interface Module (HIM)

HART communicating FIELDVUE digital valve controllers can be used in conjunction with a HART Interface Module
(HIM) and a Smart Wireless THUM adapter from Emerson Automation Solutions (figure 1). This combination allows
multiple analog signals into a control system via the HIM and remote access to diagnostics with the THUM adapter.

The Smart HART Loop Interface and Monitor from Moore Industries (shown in figure 2), and ValveLink
AMS Suite: Intelligent Device Manager can be used with the THUM adapter to implement this solution.

Note

A THUM adapter should not be used with a FIELDVUE digital valve controller firmware 4 and lower in burst mode. Since the HIM is a
HART Master and polls the FIELDVUE digital valve controller, burst mode is not required.

If the HIM replaces a device that requires the digital valve controller to be in burst mode, be sure to disable burst mode in the
digital valve controller.

Installation and Configuration Considerations

Refer to figures 2 and 3 for installation examples.

The HIM should be configured as the Primary Master and the THUM adapter as the Secondary Master. Both devices will
be transparent on the loop and poll the digital valve controller.

The HIM updates about 2 times per second. The THUM adapter updates as configured by the user and allows
communications with ValveLink software and AMS Device Manager.
